The second defendant's Calderbank argument failed because the letter did not contain a settlement offer; the first defendant's summary judgment application was not so lacking in merit or opportunistic as to justify departure from the normal costs rule, therefore the second defendant's application for indemnity costs is dismissed and costs from the summary judgment/strike out proceedings are reserved pending final outcome.
